Chapter 776 Give hope first, then despair

Long Zhan came to see Councillor Jim with a gift and took a meal to deepen their relationship. In fact, it was just a pretext for getting close to Councillor Jim's house.
This is not the true purpose!
Finding a way to stay at Councillor Jim's house tonight is the purpose of Dragon Zhan coming here specifically.
As for why you have to find a way to stay at Councillor Jim's house for one night, this is what it means to Long Zhan's unique bribery method.
In order to ensure that he can successfully bribe, Long Zhan directly filled his acting skills.
The first is to win over the son of Councillor Jim.
Long Zhan had already made arrangements since he came here and had already dug the pit. He could easily complete this step when the prey jumped in.
The trap set by Long Zhan was the sports car he bought.
When Long Zhan was driving all the way, he could also step on the accelerator when he parked in front of the house, so that the explosion and roar of the V8 engine could fully demonstrate its muscles.
As long as they are real men, few men can withstand the adrenaline surge caused by the roar of the engine.
fast and Furious.
It is a man's nature!
Long Zhan clearly remembered that when he stepped on the accelerator with both feet, it was like pressing the switch. A window on the second floor of Councillor Jim's house was immediately opened.
A young black boy showed his face.
Even though he was more than ten meters away, Long Zhan could clearly see that the eyes of the black boy were filled with obsession and desire for Shelby sports cars.
And the extreme envy of someone who likes something but can't afford it.
Fashionable, handsome, muscle, sports car...
The Shelby GT500, which combines these elements, is even more unbearable for a young man who has just grown up than a cat who sees a fish.
I caught the fish smoothly with one foot of the accelerator, and the subsequent operation was simple.
Long Zhan deliberately said on the dining table that this car was too small and was not suitable for driving by himself. He had thought of selling it for a cheap price to change it to a larger one.
Hearing the words "selling cheap" by Mr. Jim's son's eyes suddenly glowed.
He said to his mother: "Mom, you said you would prepare an adult gift for me. I have figured out that I want a car of my own. I have already finished my driver's license and I can drive."
The driver's license test in the United States is different from that in China.
Although the United States is 18 years old, just as China, you can get a certificate of 1 as long as you are 16 years old. However, you cannot drive alone at this time, and someone must accompany you to drive.
After a year, you can take the official driver's license. After you get the official driver's license, you can drive alone.
In another 5 years, you can take the lifelong driver's license.
It means that if you are in a hurry to drive by yourself, you only need to be 17 years old to drive alone. It is normal for you to have a driver's license at the age of 18.
Councillor Jim's son speaks very skillfully, and the children in the new era are all very treacherous.
Although he did not directly say that he wanted the car for Long Zhan, he said it at this critical moment, and the fool knew what he meant.
The congressman's wife can naturally hear it.
Moms usually love their sons very much, and the same is true for Councillor Jim's mother.
In addition, in the United States, we are more open to our children, and we usually don’t have much funding after adulthood, but the coming-of-age ceremony is highly valued.
Basically, as long as it is not too excessive, parents will find ways to satisfy their children.
Knowing that his son was attracted to Long Zhan’s sports car, the congressman’s wife understood it and asked indirectly: “You have a very good vision, and the car is very beautiful.
Unfortunately, it is not suitable for you. You are too strong and should buy a large-size wide-body car. So, how much do you plan to sell this sports car?"
He is worthy of being a member of parliamentarian's wife, and he is very skillful in saying this.
It’s not that I’d rather sell it to me directly, but I asked the price of selling it as a bystander, which is obviously more mature and rational.
The advantage of asking this is that...
If the price Long Zhan said is appropriate, she would follow the topic and ask Long Zhan to sell it to herself.
If the price is not suitable and she can't afford it, she can easily catch it and turn it to other directions, so that it will not lead to embarrassment.
Long Zhan was surprised by the wisdom of the congressman's wife. He was the smarter one among the black women he had ever come into contact with.
In order to ensure that his bribery plan is implemented smoothly, Long Zhan must not really say that it is a very low price. The cheap sale mentioned above is just to attract the son of the congressman.
So I thought about it for a second or two and said reluctantly: "I haven't bought this car for two days. I saw it look good at it at that time, and it was impulsive consumption.
I have been driving for less than two days, and this car is equivalent to a brand new car.
I asked a friend before and according to the market conditions of used cars, I bought this car for 100,000 yuan, and it should be sold for more than 90,000 yuan, which is a long time and I need to meet suitable customers.
I don’t want to wait that long, and I don’t have time to wait, and I hope to make a move earlier, so I plan to sell for 80,000 yuan, and I should be able to find a buyer within a week.”
Long Zhan’s acting skills are Oscar-level. If you don’t open a company to act, you will definitely be able to make a living.
Even though what he said was half true and half false, his expression was vivid and brought the psychological reaction of a car seller to the extreme.
"80,000? It's indeed a reasonable price."
The congressman's wife agreed with Long Zhan's idea, but there was an unconcealed loss in her eyes.
"Yes, the price is already very low, and I can really make a quick move. Where are you going to sell it? Do I need me to ask for someone to help you?"
Councillor Jim could not hide his embarrassment in his eyes. He never mentioned buying a car, but instead introduced the seller to Long Zhan.
The son of the congressman who was originally full of joy was too young to hide his emotions. He was so disappointed when he heard the price and was helpless to write it on his face.
Long Zhanjiang's family's expression was fully visible, and he could not hide his joy in his heart.
This is exactly what he wants to achieve!
With the current salary level of full-time lawmakers in the US state, officials in the 10 full-time legislatures of the state government are almost the same, with an average salary of around 70,000 US dollars per year.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! That is, the salary of rich states is around 100,000, while the economically underdeveloped states only have 40,000 to 50,000 US dollars per year.
If it were not the elected full-time MPs, but just part-time MPs temporarily hired by the government, the salary would be even less.
The average is less than 15,000 per year.
If a part-time councillor does not wash dishes in the restaurant, and works as a parking waiter in the hotel, find an extra part-time job for himself.
Even if you are a state MP, you will be too poor to afford to eat.
(It's a little exaggerated, but it's quite the same.)
Although North Carolina is not as poor as Maine, it is even the governor's annual salary is only $70,000, and the full-time congressman's salary is only a pitiful 30,000 to 40,000.
But in fact, it is not much better, and it cannot be compared with those top states.
Member Jim's annual income after tax is only more than 60,000 yuan, and his wife is just working as a cashier in a restaurant, and the calculation is only more than 30,000 yuan a year.
The couple combined for less than 100,000 yuan a year, which is just enough for the family to live a normal life.
It means that you can eat and drink enough, have a car and a house, and occasionally go out for travel or do some adjustment activities. You live a comfortable life but never rich.
If Long Zhan’s offer is only 20,000 to 30,000 US dollars, the couple gritted their teeth and threw out a few credit cards, and they would just click on it in the next one or two years, and they would say goodbye to travel and other things, but they could buy it.
Unfortunately, Long Zhan’s offer was 80,000, three or four times higher than their psychological price.
It is impossible for such a family to pay 80,000 yuan.
It is equivalent to a domestic monthly salary of 5,000 yuan, but it has to buy a car worth 1 million yuan.
Not to mention whether you can afford it or not, I am afraid you can't afford it. Insurance, maintenance, oil costs and other things are not something that can be withstood by a salary of 5,000.
This is why the Jim family suddenly became miserable when they heard Long Zhan’s offer.
